Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from 1983 Budget: Explanatory Notes for Committee on Appropriations
A base level of surveillance and evaluation will be maintained in forest pest management. Insect and disease suppression will be concentrated on Federal lands and on State and private lands that are intermingled with Federal lands. High priority special projects such as production of the Douglas - fir tussock moth virus will be carried out under this program. In rural forestry assistance, improved wood utilization activities will be substantially reduced in favor of forest management assistance to nonindustrial private landowners. The expanded emphasis on hardwood management and utilization and on softwood regeneration will be discontinued with an associated decrease in assistance to States for seedling production and tree improvement. Urban forestry assistance, organization management assistance, and technology implementation projects will not be funded. Planning assistance will be concentrated in those States where it will best influence softwood supplies and where State Forest Resources Plans will be completed in 1983.
